Default 625cc vs 550cc injectors

I have been plannin on buying some 625cc injectors from a guy on the forum for $300 shipped. But, then I bought a boost controller from a guy and he told me he has 550cc injectors for $200 shipped.

So my questions is, is it worth it to go bigger injectors right now since I do plan on building the motor before the end of this year/early next year.

But, when do 550s max out past there safe duty cycle. I plan to have 300hp on 8-10psi daily. Then plan to have high boost around 330, I guess. Would 550s be around their limit at these power levels.

Ok. But what about when I get done building a motor and I want about 400hp+ would the 550s still be straight.

You can't just guesstimate what size injectors you need...theres a formula somewhere online (too lazy to look for it lol) but it will tell you what size injectors you'll need for X amount of HP you're planning on reaching.

well there is many who are pushing around the 300whp area that are using 550's so you should just use those for now, until your built dream comes alive.. you can save that 100 for something else.. like the tune for your turbo..
